The rooftop terrace of the St. James Boutique Hotel in the Gaslamp Quarter is a hidden gem in San Diego. it is quaint and charming with gorgeous views of the San Diego Harbor & Skyline and best of all it's free for the public to use! Bring a bottle of wine or a picnic to watch the beautiful sunset. The elevator is the original one from 100 years ago, with the manual black rod iron screen door. It's very cool to ride up to the top. St. James Hotel makes a great romantic date!
